New Grower First ever grow with what I have on hand

So, after the chop last week I took the 2.6 gal pot outside and dumped it to look at roots. There were hardly any roots at the bottom or sides of the pot and after removing the soil the roots could have fit in a 1 gal pot without being root bound. That's not good. I'm pretty sure I had been over watering from the beginning and roots didn't grow because they always had water. They should have rotted or shown signs of deficiency early on but they didn't because I was watering with peroxide to kill fungus gnat larvae in soil. Peroxide took care of fungus gnats just fine but it also took care of my roots and masked my over watering problem until it was too late. I took pictures but it was outside in fresh snow on a sunny day and with the contrast of really bright sun/snow and black soil it was difficult to see much in the pics so...............................

Small roots = small airy harvest. The plant grew normal and not small like a root bound plant(small pot, big roots) but could not get enough water and nutes to produce proper flower. It did the best it could though.

I got 13 grams of light airy bud including popcorn bud, dried and trimmed. 16 grams with trim.

My first grow is over. Bud is jarred and curing, what there is of it, which is better than nothing. :vibe::vibe::vibe:

Well, I did a flash dry on the little popcorn bud I picked off her last night and stuck it in the pipe. Was just enough to fill the bowl. Was harsh due to the flash dry so I can't give a flavor profile or anything, not that I'd be any good at that anyway. Fired it up for a hit and then waited for a couple minutes. Instant couch lock. Put the pipe away with the rest of the bud still in it. Couch lock lasted about two hours, I think. I lost track of time. After a couple hours the intensity wore down some and I got a bit of the giggles. Just a nice happy head high combined with a relaxed body high for a couple more hours until I went to bed(early for me) still a bit buzzed. Slept like a baby.

In short, it was just what I was looking for when I picked this plant.

Sounds Awesome! Congrats man!

I see you doing great your next grow. Overwatering definitwly makes sense with the lack of roots as well. there's been many peoples first grows thats worse than yours. Your buds look very similar to my first harvesrs. Airy, light, smelled like hay lol. Idk what yours smells like. I am concerned with my harvest now lol. I thought for sure you had about 3/4 of an ounce an ounce. but from pics it was hard for me to tell they were airy. None the less, first grow under the belt. Learned alot along the way. Potentially helped future growers with this journal. This is just my opinion but i think with that one cob and growing one plant I think you would absolutely have alot bigger harvest LST'ing your plant. I dont recommend topping though lol maybe sativas idk.
